These should be answered publicly, but IMHO too emotional to be included
in commit message.

As a newcoming contributor, I work on some ARM SoCs unpaid. It's really
a neat thing to write useful stuff for others, but this sort of removal
is weakening my and definitely others' trust to maintainers: people's
rights to maintain stuff written by themselves got removed silencely.
It doesn't sound like a good sign to me.

We need an explanation. The patch except the last paragraph looks good
to me.
